Was this lady from India, with loads of noise like a call centre behind her? She kept trying to talk to my husband but I just told her he’s not available and ended the call!

I got a call from some dodgy lot claiming I’d been in some sort of accident or whatever - total rubbish as far as I’m concerned. I just ended the call and slapped a block on the number straight away. It’s either a pain or outright scammers, no in-between. Honestly, don’t pick up if you don’t recognise the number. I normally wouldn’t answer, but I was tied up and just answered without thinking. No use trying to reason or argue with them. Once they see you’ve answered, they’ll keep ringing back because they’re using automated diallers.

The caller had a thick Indian accent, which made it hard to catch what they were saying. After straining to listen, I picked up on the word "accident" and it clicked that it was a scam call. I told them to shove off, hung up straight away, and then blocked the number.

Got a call from someone saying I’d been in some kind of crash or whatever, sounded like the typical scam spiel. Didn’t hang about, just ended the call and blocked the number straightway. Could be nothing worse than a pain, but possibly scammers trying a fast one. Honestly, if a number’s not familiar, best not to pick up at all. I don’t usually answer unknown callers but this time I was caught off guard. No use trying to reason with them, it’s all automated anyway and once they know you’re there, they just keep ringing non-stop. They probably use some sort of auto dial system.

They just hung up on me when I didn’t pick up. What a waste of time. Definitely gonna block this number. Ridiculous scammers, they should find proper work!

She kept insisting that I’d been involved in some minor car accident in the past three years. I asked her to be more specific about which accident she meant, and all she could say was "the minor accident within the last three years!" I couldn’t help but laugh, and then she just cut the call off on me.

Got a call from someone claiming I'd been in a car crash - funny thing is, I don’t even have a licence! Total scam, watch out.

They seemed really clued up on a crash that happened a couple of years back, mentioning the drivers, car models and even registration numbers. But they didn’t say much about what actually went down in the accident. Tried to convince me I could claim over £3,000 in compensation. I told them I wasn’t so sure, given what I remember about that crash. I handed over my email, but haven’t heard a thing since. Reckon they must have pulled my details from the Motor Insurance Database or something.

Got a ring from 01704 791716 earlier today. The bloke spoke with an Indian accent, was quite courteous, saying he was from the "claims department". He asked if I could recall a car crash from the past couple of years that wasn't on me. I said "No" and after a pause, he just hung up. Just a heads-up: most folks naturally think any smash-up isn’t their fault, so his tactic was spot on. Perfect for a scammer, that is.

I've had a couple of calls from this number, and every time I pick up, there's no one on the line and then they just put the phone down. Quite strange!
